I have a garnet hill one I love with shorts. Similar to this butt mine is scoop necks:

Mine is a light cotton so not too hot. The other possibility is light weight peasant blouses or popover tops— I think those looks cute with shorts.

Great suggestions. I recently got the Theodora and it's very flattering. I sized up a bit as it's a bit form fitting. I'm 45.

Another vote for the Jcrew perfect tee.

I also buy this one:

OP. This is exactly what I’m looking for! So many colors! Have you purchased these before?
Are they true to size?


Yes, but they run wide and short. I’m 125 5’5” and wear a small. It’s quite wide when it arrives but shrinks to the perfect slightly boxy fit. It is straight cut

This. And pick up swimming. You are too young for saggy arms


I agree. It’s weird because the only weight I’ve ever gained was during one pregnancy. I went back down to my regular weight (125) after pregnancy. I did join a pool this summer so I do plan on swimming laps.

+1 - t shirts with longer sleeves usually emphasize the extra weight; button downs (ups??) are much more flattering.

The Nordstrom brand Caslon makes an elbow length t shirt with a ballet neckline that's really flattering.
